Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 cup key lime juice (freshly squeezed if possible)
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
  • 1 cup heavy cream Can be substituted with coconut cream for a lighter option.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
For the Chocolate Coating
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Method
 

Prepare the Filling
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the key lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and thoroughly blended.
Make the Crust
  1. Fold in the graham cracker crumbs, ensuring an even distribution throughout the mixture.
Mold the Bites
  1. Use a silicone ice cube tray or mini muffin pan lined with mini cupcake liners. Spoon the key lime filling into each cavity, filling them about ¾ full. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
Freeze
  1. Cover the tray with plastic wrap and freeze the key lime bites for about 3 hours or until completely firm.
Prepare the Chocolate Coating
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
Coat the Bites
  1. Once the key lime bites are firm, gently remove them from the tray. Dip each bite into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off.
Set the Chocolate
  1. Place the dipped bites back onto a parchment-lined tray and repeat until all bites are coated. Freeze for an additional 15-20 minutes to set.
Serve & Enjoy
  1. Once the chocolate has set, your Chocolate Covered Frozen Key Lime Pie Bites are ready to serve. Enjoy these delightful treats cold!
